Have You Ever Considered A Career in Fire Dancing?

Tsura, a member of the Gypsy Dance Theater, dances with fire during evening performance at the 2011 Texas Renaissance Festival in Todd Mission, Texas.

If you want more examples to think about, check out the hubs fire ladies photostream on Flickr. I debated the sword/fire combo for about two seconds, but yeah, I think I’m happy to stay a writer who hoses her characters and not herself.

Did you ever consider an alternate career? One that involved twirling fire dangerously close to your body? Other high octane professions? Do you prefer it in your fiction, not your life?

All comments are entered into my monthly drawing for $10 AnaBanana gift card. Winner is announced in the first blog post of the new month.

Perilously–in her fiction–yours,

Pauline

I’m not called Perilous P because I twirl fire, but because I write peril-filled fiction. You can find out more about me and my books at paulinebjones.com. And chat with me at #perilousp on Twitter.
